Will this cause more closings?
Nordstrom was supposed to close two stores for good at the start of April. With everything that's been going on, I'm worried that number might go up - significantly. Not to mention that since the stores are already closed due to the coronavirus... — read more

The symbiotic relationship between Boeing and Nordstrom, especially in areas like Alderwood and Everett, will definitely play out again like it has in the past. When Boeing falls, so does business for places like Nordstrom and Alderwood Mall. While... — read more

Nordstrom will survive 2020

Question for Nordstrom management
Since I know you guys lurk here. Will Nordstrom release an 8-K report any time soon detailing the company's exposure, if any, to the Extell development Central Park Tower? Does Nordstrom Corporation have a stake in or share the risk for the... — read more
Seattle
Sales is zero. They could have rented out the stores for quarantine and made some rent money. King County wouldn't have to buy some flea infested hotel for quarantine. Yes, stay behind the VPN until your VP tells you otherwise.

What will happen next and were will this take us?
Situation?
What's the overall mood as it relates to the King County virus outbreak? I am curious to hear how people working there feel? All the best.
Will Nordstrom cut deep enough?
Do you really employ 1,800+ software engineers, at salary levels per that old Blind boast post? How quickly can you slash capex and expense to staunch the bleeding? If your internet fulfillment web site and back end really demand so many... — read more
West Coast fulfillment center
I need to catch up. So the last I had heard, it was 2016 and Blake was apologizing to the City of Visalia for getting cold feet and mothballing the planned west coast FC. This would complete the set — Cedar Rapids, IA, somewhere in eastern PA... — read more
Bare minimum corporate staff
Back in the day, it was known around the IT circles at Nordstrom that project work in general was a “nice to have” and that if it were necessary, any and all new development tasks and capex could be scuttled and IT reduced to a bare-bones support... — read more

NY Flagship has not turned the hype into sales
The numbers show the NY Flagship did not have anywhere the sales projected in December. January is off to a very bleak start. They put lipstick on a dying pig.
Chicago Flagship Huge Cuts in Hours...Is YOUR store affected?

Let us propose two layoffs at Nordstrom this year
The first one has already been planned and will be executed soon. The company is overstaffed in the Corporate Center with very expensive Seattle IT worker bees. Does the NOC at Denver still exist? WTF for? This should have been shut down 5... — read more

Toxic company beliefs
Personally I have never worked in a more toxic fake work culture in my entire life.... this means that this company will not last. Abort any stock, plans or purchases for long term with Nordstrom, the reward is only profiting the worst people in... — read more
Nordstrom Layoffs 2020
Do you think there may be small/medium/large Nordstrom Layoffs 2020? Any news or rumors?
CAO exit
So I was just screwing around, I googled “Nordstrom Starbucks Nike Vice President” just to see if a certain talentless someone would come up — yup. But another person was listed who has the opposite trajectory, ending up at Nordstrom in 2017 as... — read more
Why do we need so many software developers?
It can't be true that Nordstrom has 1,800!!! software developers, can it? What in the world do we need them for and what in the world do they do all day if that number is true? Frankly, if there are that many, then that is THE PERFECT WAY to cut... — read more
All eyes on the new FLS
It will be interesting to see how Nordstrom reports on the fortunes of the Manhattan FLS, if they will break it out like the Anniversary Sale or at least answer specific questions on it in the earnings call. Up to now they have been very open and... — read more
End of an era

Can I use these apps yet? Or are they integrated into production Nordstrom sales-ey store systems yet? Are the devs all onboard, drawing a paycheck? What’s the plan for this nonsense? Another dumb purchase? ROI or more goodwill... — read more
Nordstrom Manhattan nightmare
The out-of-towners will lose it all. Take the super-tall One57 tower, completed in 2014 and considered the forerunner of Billionaires’ Row, a once largely commercial corridor around 57th Street in Midtown, which remains about 20% unsold, with... — read more
Opinions on the new COO
Is he a baller, a shot-caller? 20-inch blades on his Impala? Can he make a real difference in his new role? Can the last, best retailer be saved?
Burn witches
One can only hope the nordstrom family sell out whatever dignity is left in this shady company and run. Shady people with too much internal power driving the company into the ground, using people. I will be pc but heads of all not performing. ... — read more
Comment I found online re Amazon
“I know a guy at AMZ and ‘Nordstrom K–ler’ project is going strong in terms of digital sizing women thru 3D scanning.” They are coming for you. Looks like Forever 21 will file Chapter 11 soon as well. How will Nordstrom fight the evil empire? — read more
Wtf!!!! Return rates now accepting Macy’s returns
Now Nordstrom is accepting Macy’s returns! Ok now whoever is on the decision making for this needs to go
Noticed a few things from the 10-Q released today
No stock buybacks in Q2, stock cut nearly in half. They still have dry powder to use to prop up the stock and give execs an exit, almost half the buyback allowance is still left, with no time limit. Nothing changed on risks, etc, kept referencing... — read more
